Listen "The Bodyguard"
Episode Synopsis
This week we review the 1992 American romantic thriller drama film The Bodyguard directed by Mick Jackson, starring Kevin Costner, Whitney Houston (in her movie acting debut), Gary Kemp, Bill Cobbs, and Ralph Waite.
The film follows a former United States Secret Service agent turned bodyguard who is hired to protect a famous actor and singer from an unknown stalker.
Kasdan wrote the film in the mid-1970s, originally as a vehicle for Steve McQueen.
We start the podcast with a discussion about why the Scotsman angry again and why is he often grumpy - has it got something to do with the end of the Season or his podcast partner. Or is he just generally miserable.
We also chat about the Scotsman's recent testing at BFT (Body Fit Training) - and his surprise admission about throwing up during the testing. The Aussie can't believe it. He tells us an insinkerator story which is really just a complaint about kids leaving food scraps in the sink.
The question is: "why are we reviewing The Bodyguard?"
Well this is in the Aussie's top 10 and he tells us why. The Scotsman had not seen this and he tells us why.
The Aussie fan-boys over Whitney all the way through: " You get to this level of fame and some can handle it and some can't." he says and "at what age is too old to go up to celebs and want to talk?"
